I am not even sure if we should do this at all. Should the static metamodel really
contain transient properties?
The meta model is primarily there to write type safe criteria queries and you cannot
target transient fields there.
So I am actually tempted to reject this one.

Right. Personally I don't see even a point in this. Happy to move this one

This is another one, I am not even sure about whether it would be correct. I need to
think more about this one.
If you see any value in iet me know :-)
Not really but I'm not a heavy user of the metamodel. We mostly use
QueryDSL to write our queries now.
If you want to help out feel free to look at remaining issues, for
example METAGEN-86 (even so we need to first assess
whether we can fix that for this release).
I took a look at them this afternoon (thus my previous email) and I
don't think I'm a good choice to fix the remaining ones as they are
really on parts of jpamodelgen/Hibernate I don't use or know. I want
to work on some Hibernate Search stuff in the next few days so I don't
think I'll be able to help more on this front.
I updated the Maven versions in this pull request this afternoon as I
thought it might be useful:
https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-metamodelgen/pull/7 .
